Are you ******* kidding me! This is ********! Literally every technology is stolen at some point! That's how the industry works, someone has a good idea and implements it then someone takes that and does it slightly differently.

But you're wrong... Everyone is not just constantly suing everyone over patents, because it's utter BS. That's actually the reason that it's making the news, because this is one of the first time patent law has ever been used the way it's being used. Try and find a single other example of one of the other companies suing each other like this; it hasn't happened.

For someone who was complainging about others abilities to name specifics, you're staying pretty vague :3

The beatles suit was pretty well justified. When apple first started, apple corp sued them, saying that it was trademark infringement. When they settled, the legal conditions were that apple could keep their name, as long as they never got into the music business. Then, when apple broke that agreement, they got sued again. Simple as that.

I assume you're talking about Nokia vs. Apple. In that case, they sued eachother (nokia started it), over an actual, legitimate technology patent (physical hardware, an actual way of doing something that Nokia researched, developed, and patented themselves).
The Nokia suit kind of illustrates the frustrating point; apple blatantly stole their various technologies (and many more that they were never sued for), and then defended viciously their ability to do it. Then, they turn around, and launch unprecedentedly huge lawsuits trying to destroy android for what they claim is the same thing, even though it's not (look into the things they're claiming, it's ridiculous. Slide to unlock is actually one of the ones they sued over).
